Cichlids of Tanganyika

[Tropical Joe]

Does any one know where to buy super nice Cichlids from lake Tanganyika ?? I am looking for nice size fish as well. Most places have small specimens. For example Frontosa, Compressiceps, Leleupi,and Lampologus Trtrocephaius. I am looking for a place in or near Queens NY or if there is nothing how about mail order ?? Any suggestions would really help. Thanks MFK members--

Are you looking for wild caught, F1's, tank raised?

 

[Tropical Joe]

No Not wild caught. Just nice size fish

I'd keep an eye on aquabid, I've seen some really nice tank raised fish on there and pretty much everybody ships now-a-days.

Dave's is great, but I would suggest SI Cichlids as a local option for you, which I'm pretty sure is in Staten Island. I've had fish shipped from him and they've been great. I get the feeling he runs this out of his house and it came from him being in the hobby and just expanding to import, breed, sell, etc.

Since I just signed up it won't let me post a link, but if you Google for SI Cichlids you'll find the site.

The pricelist is totally out of date and I think most of his business is word of mouth, but Tony is well worth tracking down if you're in the area. I'm pretty sure he has a day job, so give him some time to resond. Prices were great to.

I get them from Live Fish Direct out of Draper UT and I live in the Bronx. They have an excellent assortment of Cichlids. Check out there website and tell me what you think. Hope this helps.
